If memory servers me correct you have to get to a "three part line"
before you are actually doubling the pulling power. Just merely running
the cable back the the winch, "two part line", only cuts the line speed
in half and does nothing for the pulling power. If you run the line
back to the winch and then back to the load this is a "three part line"
then you double the power.

You bet.......double the cable of course.......then you get 20K of
pulling
power....double again.....40K.........
It will pull nicely......just make sure cable is in good condition and
the
snatch blocks you use are excellent as well.
